Alix Honda 8/27/14

Welcome to my Art and Technology blog for the Fall Semester 2014. My name is Alix Honda and I am a Junior at the University of Tampa studying Film and Media Arts with a minor in Digital Arts. I am originally from St. Paul, Minnesota and just recently moved to Tampa in 2012. I enjoy anything creative, social, or adventurous which includes (but is not limited to) filmmaking, listening to and creating music, camping, and long boarding. My first impression of the class was that we were going to be doing some pretty radical thinking and creating some intense and meaningful projects. I get the sense that this is one of those classes where everyone will, in some way, have to leave their comfort zone. I've had a few classes like that before and in every case, I thoroughly enjoyed and greatly benefited from it. I'm not entirely sure what I should expect from this class, except that I am going to have a lot of projects that will require a good chunk of my time and a deal of content that I think I'm really going to be interested in. I also have a lot of similar interests as the professor, such as the Oculus Rift and and the theatre which will hopefully make for a good relationship and experience this semester.
